Christiane Engel: Dump Truck Disco

Grab your dancing shoes & polish up those moves because ‘Dump Truck Disco’, part of Barefoot Books Singalongs series, hits bookshelves this month!

Kirkus review: “Eye-popping acrylics mixed with watercolors and digital collage render each page a colorful cacophony that defies the dark of night. Expect construction-loving kids to be dancing to this funkytown night fever hustle.”
